Learn To Be Smart
A quintessential educational philosophy. A world-class Singaporean enrichment centre with a touch of the Ivy League, Oxbridge and Nordic innovation.
① Education. Thoughtfully designed and curated for the future, by people who know what you need. The name Academia reflects our promise to train our students to be the cleverest.
② We use our combined intellect and expertise to help the next generation navigate a world designed for the global 5% elite: a high-capitalist world where communication skills, critical thinking and economic expertise are paramount.
③ Automation and technological innovation have already made last-century skills obsolete. Higher-order qualities such as creative awareness, design thinking and personal branding will create the next generation of thought leaders and influencers. Outside of STEM, the humanities are a passport to the world of the global financial, managerial and entrepreneurial class.
④ At the same time, we understand that learning should not be laborious, but rather a labour of love. This is where a philosophy of learning as a lifestyle has been transformed into a seamless 360° learning experience.
⑤ A supportive environment that pushes you forward – not off a cliff, but across a bridge. On a journey to a future that transcends boundaries. Academia will help you get to your future desired self, every step of the way.

A Quintessential Philosophy
Unabashedly Intellectual
Imagine a constantly evolving enrichment centre with a focus on higher-order skills, sophisticated writing and deep analysis. We’re unabashedly intellectual and we make no bones about it – and we want your child to be smart, too. We work with and train teachers whose lives revolve around education, the kind of people who discuss educational pedagogy and learning strategies in their free time.
360° Learning Experience
Our 360° learning experience balances time-tested learning strategies with contemporary culture and technology. For our students, learning to be smart is a complete lifestyle that extends beyond the classroom. We lead by example, demonstrating and training real skills that help our students flourish as 21st century global citizens, knowledge specialists and content wizards.
Liberal Arts Exposure
Intellectual, social and cultural capital that enables your child to transition seamlessly through advanced capitalist societies anywhere in the world. So they, too, can aspire to world-class organisations (or build one of their own). With both eyes on the inexorable trend of computer automation, we empower our students to be thinkers and creators, not rote-learners and followers.
Personal Branding
Be an opinion leader and trendsetter – create and sustain a meticulously crafted self-image, from public speaking to personal optics. All increasingly relevant in a multi-pronged, intrinsically complex world.
Data-Driven Analysis
We use qualitative data analysis to understand and evaluate our students’ strengths and weaknesses through their work, as well as make predictions about educational trends. The result is a targeted and adaptive curriculum that responds to our students’ needs.
